Second round closes, and rankings lockHard deadlineDetails
The round University Admissions tells a May 2027 IB candidate to use. Many English-taught programmes are no longer open in it, so check your programme is before you plan on it.
Also the final ranking day: the order you put your choices in on this date is the order that is used. The fee-exemption date (23 April), the document date (21 June) and the deadline for your IB results (5 July) are entries of their own.

Second round — document your EU/EEA citizenship (fee exemption)Hard deadlineDetails
Eight days after the application deadline. An application whose fee exemption is not documented is not processed.
Eight days after you apply, and easy to miss because it lands after the part that feels like the deadline. As an EU/EEA citizen you are exempt from the application fee and from tuition, but you must document that exemption by this date; non-EU/EEA applicants pay the fee by the same date. An application whose exemption is not documented is not processed.

First admissions round opensJU Direct Application opens (rolling admission)Diploma holders onlyDetails
The round aimed at applicants from abroad, carrying most English-taught programmes. The 2027 catalogue becomes visible here. University Admissions tells IB students who have not finished the Diploma not to apply in this round.
This is the round aimed at international applicants. Most English-taught programmes are only offered here.

First round closes, and rankings lockHard deadlineDiploma holders onlyDetails
Also the last day to change how your choices are ranked. Not your round as a May 2027 IB candidate unless the programme admits on predicted grades (Stockholm School of Economics does).
Closes at midnight CET, and it is also the ranking deadline. University Admissions' IB guidance page says "If you haven't yet completed your IB Diploma programme, do not apply to the first admissions round", because University Admissions "will not be able to evaluate your application in time for admissions decisions in late March/April" without a completed transcript and diploma (https://www.universityadmissions.se/en/apply-to-bachelors/provide-application-documents-bachelors/ib-studies/). A May 2027 candidate therefore normally cannot use this round — the second round, below, is yours.

First round — supporting documents, and your proof of fee exemptionHard deadlineDiploma holders onlyDetails
Also the deadline to document EU/EEA/Swiss citizenship for fee exemption. Five months before IB results are published, which is the problem to solve early rather than in January.
One day, three things. As an EU/EEA citizen you pay no application fee and no tuition, but you do not get the exemption automatically — you have to document your EU/EEA citizenship by this date, and University Admissions handles that on the same deadline it uses to collect the fee from everyone else. All supporting materials are due the same day.

Second round supporting documentsHard deadlineDetails
Everything except the IB results themselves, which have until 5 July.
The general document deadline for the second round. It is not the date for your IB results: University Admissions gives IB students completing their studies this spring until 5 July 2027 for that (next entry). Anything else you need - an ID copy, other transcripts - goes in by 21 June, and University Admissions asks you to upload documents you already have with the application.

University Admissions needs your IB results (recipient code UHR)Hard deadlineDetails
University Admissions gives IB/EB students completing their studies this spring until 5 July. Your coordinator releases your results through the IB Result Service. IB results day is expected just after this date, so ask University Admissions now how a late result is handled.
Published on the autumn 2027 key-dates page: applicants completing an IB/EB programme this spring "have until 5 July to submit documentation of your completed upper secondary studies". For a May 2027 Diploma that means your coordinator releasing your results to recipient code "UHR" through the IB Result Service. IB results day is expected just after this date, so ask University Admissions now how a late result is handled.

After every first-round date. In the second round University Admissions wants your IB results by 5 July, so ask them how a late result is handled; second-round results come on 9 July.

Second round results publishedDetails
The first notification of selection results for the round a May 2027 IB candidate actually uses. What you must do next has its own entry, one week later, and it is the date on this page most worth putting in a calendar now.

Reply to your second-round offerHard deadlineDetails
You have seven days from the 9 July notification to reply, and a place you do not reply to is a place you lose — including a place you have been offered while still waiting on a higher choice. Set this one before you apply, not after you are offered.

All 3 notes
- JU says final-year school students can apply only through JU Direct, with grades up to the first half of the final year; you must send final IB results before term starts.
- Admission is rolling, and a programme can close before 2 May 2027 once it is full.
- To keep a conditional offer you must complete all subjects and keep the points of your predicted grades, JU's IB section says.
